Truly life changing

I would like to express how thankful I am for finding this law firm and the people that work there. They made the process of our I-130 forms and consular processing fast and easy, there is no way we could have done it ourselves and had the outcome we had! We didn’t have to worry or wonder if we did i...t right. They answered all our questions and made me feel at ease, no matter what the question was. I am so thankful for everything they did to bring us together and make the process worry free for us. I would highly recommend them if you are trying to be with a loved one or family!

Highly Recommend!

My wife and I have worked with Christopher and his team over the past 4 years and are so grateful for all they have done for us. They have been with us every step of the way, from the beginning of my journey to immigrate to the U.S. through marriage, all the way to receiving my citizenship recently. ...They were professional and personable from day one and always made it clear what we would need to do for every process we entered into. They worked with us to make sure every form submitted was as prepared as possible for the best chances of approval, made sure that myself and my wife were prepared before each interview and even made sure that we kept everything in line while traveling several times out of the U.S. while holding a green card. Christopher is great, when talking to him he always remembered our names, our story, our plans and our interests. He and his assistants were always able to answer our many questions over the years. When needed, they made us aware of upcoming policy changes or fee increases that pertained to my case, and were able to prepare what we needed in a timely matter to meet deadlines and help us avoid having to pay more when, if we were quick, we didn't need to. My whole process of immigrating here went as smoothly as is even possible thanks to the hard work and attention to detail of everyone at ILM. All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you! I highly recommend Christopher and Immigration Law of Montana to anyone with immigration needs!

Great service

I appreciated how quickly our case was taken care of and how the attorney who was assigned to us, gave us in detail all the necessary items we needed for our interview. What a great relief. Thanks much Christopher Flann and team!

Green Card

I will start by saying that I'm very grateful to have found these two people, Christopher and Collette to help us during our green card process. Since the first meeting, Christopher was very straight forward and demonstrated a lot of knowledge and experience in the area. He made us aware of the Visa ...Bulletin and when was the best time to start our process. We hired a lawyer because our case was very unique. In our first meeting Christopher explained every detail and let us know how we should proceed and prepare for the possible outcomes. They helped us during the entire process and answered every question that we had. Collette helped us organize all the documents and made sure we had everything in order before we submitted the application. After we filed the application we were always communicating with Collette to make sure that things were going well. She let us know every time they received a notice in the mail so we knew what to expect. As soon as we received the interview notice in the mail we scheduled a pre-interview meeting with Christopher. Christopher explained to us the structure of the interview and how we should prepare for it. Collette arranged an interpreter for us which was very important since my husband is not fluent in English. We had Christopher and the interpreter attending the interview with us and I'm glad we did that. Christopher made all the difference during the interview. He guided us during the entire time and made us calm and confident. We didn't have a final decision right after the interview but Christopher and Collette assured us that things went well and it did. A few days later we got an email from USCIS saying that the case was approved! Collette was more than a legal assistant in our case… she was patient, positive, careful, and was able to make the entire process smooth and easy for us. Christopher was always honest, positive, careful and very professional. We consulted other lawyers in Montana before hiring Christopher and his staff but after talking to Christopher for the first time we were confident that he would be the best lawyer for us. It was the first time we hired Immigration law of Montana and we will hire them for our future applications. We are very happy and confident that they are the best immigration law firm in the US.
